Steel Connect, Inc. Announces Reverse/Forward Stock Split

Steel Connect, Inc. (Nasdaq: STCN), a Delaware corporation and holding company (the “Company” or “Steel Connect”), announced today that it will effect a 1-for-3,500 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), followed immediately by a 375-for-1 forward stock split of the Company Common Stock (the “Forward Stock Split,” and, together with the Reverse Stock Split, the “Reverse/Forward Stock Split”). The Company Common Stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the existing symbol “STCN” and will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on June 22, 2023. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will be 858098205.

At the Company’s Special Meeting of Stockholders held on June 6, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the proposal to authorize the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. On June 21, 2023, the Company will file a certificate of amendment to its restated certificate of incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split, followed immediately followed by the filing of a certificate of amendment to its restated certificate of incorporation to effect the Forward Stock Split.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. Instead, the Company will pay cash (without interest) to any stockholder who would be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. Stockholders who hold fewer than 3,500 shares immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split will be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such number of shares of Company Common Stock held multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock on Nasdaq for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split. Any remaining stockholders who would have been entitled to receive fractions of a share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such fractions multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock on Nasdaq for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (with such average closing sales prices being adjusted to give effect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split).

The number of shares of authorized Company Common Stock will not change as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split; however, the number of shares of outstanding Company Common Stock will decrease as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. On a net basis, the Reverse/Forward Stock Split results in an approximate 1-for-9.333 reverse stock split.

The Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, will serve as exchange and paying agent for the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. Registered stockholders holding pre-split shares of the Company Common Stock electronically in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. Stockholders owning shares via a broker, bank, trust or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, subject to such broker’s particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.
